    Default Need a big Helmet 5X Helmet XXXXXL

    I have tried, I bet, 20 helmets, and have only found 2 that fit and the 3x Z1R is tight

    Z1R Ace Helmet Color open-face with shield- White, Size- 3X-Large

    HJC CL-Max II Size- 5X Modular - fits great but prefer the open face with shield


    Any suggestions?

    Vega boasts a 5xl but can't get it on my head.

    Try a Nolan helmet.....find a Nolan dealer that stocks a bunch of varieties. I have the Nolan Trilogy N43. They fit very comfortable.

    I have a similar issue as I had to locate a 4X to finally get it comfortable. I ended up with a Zox helmet. Its a half helmet I think it is the Zox Nano not the custom or anything I think they go up to 5X on their web-site? I would gladly spend big money on a high quality Arai or Bell or Shoei..............just no fit.

    Good Luck, kinda sucks I see all these awesome helmets out there but they ain't gonna fit my melon!


    Additional Details:

    Zox Nano Custom Matte Black Motorcycle Helmet - 88-0023 this is the one I have in 4X it comes in a 5X as well.

    Good point! They're normally available in larger sizes since the rider will also be wearing at least a balaclava under it to help stay warm...

    Default webbikeworld has a good writeup on helmet sizing

    If you haven't read it yet, webbikeworld.com has a great write-up about head shapes and which helmets fit which head shapes. Only thing is, you've got to be able to figure out which shape your dome is!

    Same issue for me. I tried many helmets and read for hours and hours on online research and the HJC CL-Max II Size- 5X Modular is the only one that will fit me.

    I also would love to have a higher quality helmet, but no other options.

    And I have the opposite problem, most helmets are too big for me. I wear a XS or a XXS. Good luck!!

    Shoei makes very large sizes. Best quality, expensive as hell, but very comfortable.
